This study shows early life stress increases vulnerability to migraine by altering brain network activity in response to CGRP.

This study shows that sub-chronic chlorpyrifos exposure causes sex-specific behavioral and epigenetic changes in adult mice, with female-specific effects independent of AChE activity and DNA methylation.

This study shows that placental IGF1 insufficiency in mice leads to sex-specific neurodevelopmental behavioral changes and structural brain alterations.

This review examines rodent studies on adolescent insecticide exposure, finding neurocognitive, neuropsychiatric, and neurobiological impairments linked to psychiatric risk.

This study compares the effects of maternal exposure to two pyrethroid insecticides, permethrin and α-cypermethrin, on fetal growth, placental morphology, and neurodevelopment in mice, finding that α-cypermethrin has more pronounced adverse effects.

This study examines how prenatal stress affects dorsal striatum cell types and behaviors in mice, identifying gene expression changes linked to neurodevelopmental disorders.

This study uses scRNA-seq in mouse prefrontal cortex to identify gene expression patterns associated with stress vulnerability network activity, finding key roles for astrocytes, glutamatergic neurons, and GABAergic neurons.

The paper investigates a polymorphic regulatory region in the BDNF gene associated with obesity and anxiety in mice and humans, showing altered behavior and gene expression.

This study identifies a skin-brain touch pathway involving Mrgprb4-lineage touch neurons that promotes stress resilience by modulating neural activity and corticosterone levels in mice.

This study shows PACAP induces light aversion in mice independently of CGRP, with inheritable responder and nonresponder phenotypes and distinct gene expression patterns.
